EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page from an 18th-century zoological volume, titled "Page 7. Unidentified fish. 8. Unidentified fish (w/c on paper)". The artwork was created by an unknown artist and is currently housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. The image features two vibrant watercolor paintings of unidentified fish species, meticulously rendered with astonishing detail. The aquatic creatures are depicted in a side view, allowing us to appreciate their unique anatomical features and colorful patterns. Measuring approximately 50.3 x 39.2 cm, this folio album presents a stunning collection of natural history illustrations that include not only fish but also birds - comprising a total of 32 watercolors of fish and 112 watercolors of birds. The significance of this artwork lies in its contribution to our understanding of Australian fauna during the time it was created. As part of the zoology section dedicated to New Holland (now Australia), these paintings offer valuable insights into marine life in that region. Although the identity of both the artist and the specific species portrayed remain unknown, their beauty and lifelike representation continue to captivate viewers today. This print serves as a testament to the rich biodiversity found within Australia's waters and reminds us of nature's endless wonders waiting to be discovered beneath its surface.
